Bab 39: Ch 39: I am the true mate [pt1]

"Sister Rucia, do you read more or black? Which one does the emperor like more? I just wanted to ask so that I know for reference. Y-You know, for when we are alone and stuff. I mean, the emperor and I-"

The lady Rucia was escorting continued to babble away, not even noticing that she had lost Rucia halfway through the story. 

Rucia had never met someone who could speak more than Lady Luma. 

"-and do you know I want at least five kids? Do you think the emperor would like kids? I know we cannot have them for a few more years because of the emperor's age, but maybe he will…Lady Rucia, what's wrong? Are we there?"

Rucia thanked the goddess (and cursed her simultaneously) as soon as she reached the garden.

Finally, she could get rid of Lady Luma.

'I don't know what the goddess thought when she allowed Lady Luma to become Kerin's mate. She would drive Kerin mad if she talked this much.'
